Hi! My name is Claudine Destine; I am a Dual-Certified Family/Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with 9 years of experience. I have a Master's degree in Nursing. I have experience treating Depression, Anxiety, OCD, ADHD, and other mental illnesses.
As a compassionate and experienced therapist, my mission is to support individuals through some of life's most challenging experiences, including loss, acute and chronic illness, trauma, life transitions, caregiver burnout, depression, and anxiety. With an extensive background in healthcare and hospice, I understand that these difficult circumstances can leave you feeling overwhelmed, isolated, and unsure of where to turn. My approach is grounded in empathy, understanding, and evidence-based therapies to help you find clarity, healing, and strength as you navigate these challenges. I specialize in helping individuals cope with the profound emotional and psychological impact that these experiences bring.
Welcome!
I am a licensed clinical social worker and certified clinical trauma professional with a deep passion for facilitating trauma healing through integrating a variety of therapeutic modalities to fit your unique needs and goals.
I've provided individual and group therapy to adolescents, adults, and families in a variety of settings, including substance use treatment and community mental health. My specialties include trauma, PTSD/C-PTSD, addiction, anxiety, depression, intimacy and personality disorders.
The essence of my approach is based on the belief that early childhood experiences and relationships are often the primary influences of our unhelpful beliefs, behaviors, and coping strategies, which repeatedly pose as barriers to the freedom and personal growth we are seeking.
I'm here to support you in breaking free from survival mode and stepping into a more embodied, self-aware, and hopeful way of living - to find yourself, and the peace you have been searching for.
With over 25 years as a seasoned clinician, I bring a wealth of expertise to my practice. I've personalized my approach to provide therapy with sensitivity and care. I aim to meet each individual’s unique needs. As a family therapist in Middlesex County, NJ, I am committed to helping my clients achieve lasting emotional well-being.
Prior to opening my practice I worked in inpatient and outpatient settings. I've been in private practice for over 20 years. I work with patients of all ages, helping them develop healthier relationships and lead more fulfilling lives.
I hold a master's degree in clinical social work from the Wurzweliter School of Social work, NYC. I have also completed several post-graduate training programs, and have earned certifications in various modalities of therapy such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Family Systems therapy, Clinical Supervision.
I try my utmost to customize my approach to treatment based on the specific needs of my clients.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Trenton
Searching for therapists in Trenton starts with knowing what kind of support you want from care. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or work stress. As you compare options, look for someone whose listed specialties and approach match your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what to expect in sessions.
In a smaller city like Trenton, your local options may depend on office location, schedule, and current availability. Virtual appointments can expand your search across New Jersey while still connecting you with a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions near Trenton neighborhoods like Downtown, Chambersburg, or Old Mill Hill, or virtual sessions that fit your calendar. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, communication style, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Trenton can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can browse therapists, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
